NH-90 vs UH-60 Blackhawk

Recommended Posts

I've read a few threads here and there regarding these two helos. As far as I'm aware, they're in the same general, medium-size class. On the surface, the NH-90 is a much newer design and should (in theory, at least) be superior in several respects. It has an all-composite fuselage which the manufacturer claims has a lowered radar signature. Since composites don't corrode, this should be an advantage - although the Dutch experience suggest that SOMETHING about the design has corrosion issues.

For those more knowlegable in this area, how do the two designs compare in overal payload, range, reliability, durability, etc.?
